Nourishing Communities Through Sustainable, Ethical Poultry Farming in the Heart of Limpopo
Founded in October 2020 by Mr. Kgothatso Sithole, Dimaka Farming was born from a deep-rooted passion for agriculture and a vision to address South Africa's poultry challenges. What began as an informal venture during school holidays has grown into a thriving broiler poultry farm serving communities across Limpopo.
Our journey started with a R 50,000 government grant that enabled us to establish our operations in Modimolle. Since then, we've been committed to providing high-quality, affordable poultry products while maintaining the highest standards of animal welfare and environmental sustainability.
Today, we're expanding our operations to meet growing demand, with plans to increase our production capacity by 75% and continue our mission of feeding generations to come.
Our inspiration comes from a simple belief: "Growth and comfort don't coexist." This principle, shared by business leader Virginia Rometty, drives us to continuously innovate and improve our farming practices.
Located on 75 hectares of prime farmland in Modimolle, we combine traditional farming wisdom with modern agricultural technology to produce healthy, sustainable poultry products that our community can trust.
